Description
The Doors - Doors Electric Recording 450 Limited Copies NEW 2023
Cut all valve on our 1965 Lyrec system in True Mono* directly from the original dedicated mono master tapes. No equalisation, compression or any other processing was added during the cutting process. Sleeve artwork authentically letter-pressed on a 1963 Heidelberg SB and hand finished.
About the master tapes used on the ERC cut.
This mono master marked LEDO (a term coined by Jac Holzman and used exclusively by Elektra and its associated labels) is the exact tape that was used to cut lacquers for the original 1967 US pressing as confirmed by Bruce Botnick.
LEDO stands for Leadered, Edited, Duplicate of the Original;
Everything in the chain from the tape head, the tape pre-amplifier, the cutting amplifier and the dedicated mono cutter head is a single channel pathway: This early technology avoids phase issues (smearing of the sound) that is frequently encountered when cutting with todays dual" or "pseudo" mono cutting systems
